15 mins prepServes 8
Celebrate Diwali with a quick and easy instant pot Gajar Halwa. Using La Lechera sweetened condensed milk simplifies the process, making this traditional Indian dessert luscious and creamy. Enjoy it warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream.
1. Turn on the instant pot on sauté mode for 10 min. Add ghee once the pot is hot, then the nuts, and 1 tsp of cardamom powder. Cook for 1-2 minutes. Take them out and set aside. Add the carrots in and mix well. Add the saffron and milk mix & cardamom powder, mix well. Sauté the carrots for 5-7 minutes then add milk, mix well and pressure cook for 5 minutes.
2. Natural release, then open the instant pot. Add the condensed milk + milk powder and mix well. Turn on saute mode for 15 mins and cook until the ghee has separated from the carrots. (You will have to mix often so it doesn’t stick/ burn at the bottom)
3. Garnish with the fried nuts and some rose petals.
4. Enjoy it warm or hot with some cold ice cream.
